I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM.
I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

That would be "power and extreme wealth," the presence of which can turn the brains of otherwise sentient beings to jelly.
What bothers me most about the hagiographies tech journalists wrote about Elon Musk for 20+ years is that they universally framed him as an intelligent man.
He's not.
He's an undereducated, intemperate, incurious, prejudiced, unwise, narrowly skilled dolt who is willfully ignorant on most topics.
